Have you always wanted to play the piano but haven’t been able to find an approach that works for you? This book was written by Lawrence Powell, a piano teacher who received awards for his unique and effective approach to both adults and children. In his 17 years, Lawrence devised an approach to teaching that helped his students play music at a higher level than other piano students at the same level.
The method that resulted Lawrence’s success include:
- Playing a C major scale on the piano or keyboard with both hands by the end of the first lesson
- Talking about music theory in a way adults can relate to
- Less drills and more playing and teaching the theory behind each piece as the student plays it
- Fascinating insights into the origins of Western music, and why sheet music looks the way it does today
- Fun, thought-provoking journeys through songs and larger works from Beethoven and Bach to Michael Jackson and the Grateful Dead
- Common sense advice on how to improve and enjoy the fruits of your efforts at the keyboard almost immediately
Nothing is impossible, and Lawrence shows you the way, because music theory and playing doesn’t need to be complex or unattainable with the right teacher!
